Spontaneous idea:
I'd like to send out postcards. To anyone, anywhere. If you want one, here's what you need to do:
Send me an e-mail to: postcard [-at-] theresmiling [dot] eu
In that e-mail give me:
- one word/ phrase you'd like me to incorporate somehow (could be the motif on the card, decoration I put on, or content of the text I write)
- one word/ phrase that is a no-go
- your postal address
- your fedi handle
Example for words/ phrases:
- like: cheese (I could pick a card with cheese on it (though unfortunately I do not own such a card), use my cheese washi tape as decoration, or write something about cheese)
- no-go: birds (no birds on this card whatsoever, not even on the stamp if I can help it)
Important info:
Let's start with 10 slots? Is that realistic? Will that many people want a postcard from a stranger?
I'll pick a card from my collection as close as possible to the words you give me. You cannot pick the card yourself, it will be a surprise for you.
I have art cards, promo cards, cards that came as a goodie with magazines, picture postcards, free cards, cards I bought. You cannot pick the kind of card you'll receive.
You need to be willing to trust me with an address that accepts postcards.
I am in Germany and will send anywhere, untracked (mentioning that just in case, it's a postcard after all).
I do not want anything in return. I just want to start making a tiny dent in my postcard and sticker/ washi tape collection. Like a really tiny dent.
Edit, Feb 8th: To those who've send me an e-mail - I'll send the cards out next week. I've been sick and I need a bit more time. I'll send out an e-mail once the cards are on their way.
